At least 10 people were killed today with 20 more
injured in a shooting at a community college in south-
western Oregon.
The shooter – male – went into multiple class rooms
as classes started at Umpqua Community College and
opened fire, killing students.
Police first received a call about an active shooter in a
classroom in the college just after 10:30 a.m. local
time. They arrived and exchanged gunfire with the
shooter and later said he’d been ‘neutralized. While
some sources are saying the shooter is currently in
custody. The college, which in a remote location, was
put on lock-down and the students and staff were
evacuated.
The suspect is said to be in his late 20s and
yesterday, he was online talking to others about what
he was going to do. Investigators are currently
looking at his social media posting. He was familiar
with the building according to law enforcement and
knew where he was going.
Umpqua is a two-year school with roughly 3,300 full-
time students and 16,000 part-time students.
